I went this Wednesday evening to try the Iftar at c.taste locate on the lobby level of the hotel Centro Barsha by Rotana.

Centro Barsha by Rotana is located in the vicinity of the Mall of the Emirates and is offering a daily Iftar during the month of Ramadan from fast-breaking time until 9.30 pm at c.taste.

The Iftar consists of a buffet of Arabic cuisine – starters, salads, main courses, desserts and traditional Ramadan juices.

Children aged below 12 years dine complimentary while those who come as a group of 10 guests enjoy 20% off.

The price is AED 99 per person for Iftar with soft beverages.

The restaurant will also serve lunch and Suhour from 1 to 4 am during the season of Ramadan.

The hotel can also take care of private Iftar or Suhour arrangements for up to 40 guests in one of its well-appointed event venues or a private function at guests’ own venue.

Prices start from AED 99 per person for food with soft beverages and Ramadan juices at the hotel’s private venues or AED 120 per person for food with soft beverages and Ramadan juices at a private location out of the hotel.

Guests visiting Dubai during the season can benefit from a special long-term stay package inclusive of breakfast, two pieces of complimentary laundry per day, 15% discount on dining, complimentary high speed internet and complimentary shuttle service to Mall of the Emirates, Jumeirah Beach and Sharaf DG Metro.

Rates start at only AED 6,000 for 30 nights in a Centro Room.

Unfortunately, as I was caught in traffic, I wasn’t able to take more pictures of the appetizers as I reached the hotel at the time the people were already filling their plates.

I liked their choice of appetizers, from fattouch, make your own salad, pasta salad, motabal, hummus, etc….

The pasta salad with pesto was very tasty and the hummus was amazing.

It is rare to find a restaurant doing a perfect hummus in a buffet but the hummus of c.taste was perfect, the authentic hummus!

Well done chef!

I loved also the lamb ouzi.

The lamb was juicy and full of flavors.

I highly recommend you to try it next time.

The chicken shawarma was very fresh.

They were serving it in the plate not in a sandwich and I liked it this way.

I went last week to the Iftar preview at The Address Dubai Marina.

Enjoy the stylishly elegant setting of their contemporary Constellation Ballroom, seating up to 420 guests, on the 4th floor.

There is a very big choice of food.

I couldn’t take picture of everything because I was going to do that, I will have more than 100 pictures 🙂

They have several types of cuisine: arabic, indian, asian, etc…

There is also a very big station of grills not forgetting the desserts.

Traditional in theme and lavish in diversity, their grand Iftar buffet features an extensive selection of Arabic and International favourites, live stations, a variety of authentic sweets and desserts, and the refreshingly tasty Ramadan juices. As a special treat, their chefs will also present authentic Emirati dishes such as Lafayef khoboz falazi, Robyan mashwi, Tekat deyay and a range of traditional Emirati desserts such as Leqaimat, which will rekindle the memories of childhood. A live oud player will add to the authenticity.

I couldn’t try all the dishes obviously but I tried some of them.

The muhamara was very tasty.

This potato salad is amazing!

Some pastries…

Nothing better than home cooking dishes like the zucchini and the red pepper filled with rice and meat.

The zucchini is called in the Middle East “Coussa Mehshi”.

Reaching the dessert, well I cannot tell you how big it is, you will see it when you go there.

Unlimited choices!

Make sure to keep some spaces so you can try as much as you can 🙂

Mouthwatering Arabic sweets.

I recommend you to go during Ramadan to try it! You will thank me for that 🙂
